What a brilliant idea for a competition! Nokia has hired Pamela Anderson and Gossip Girl actor Ed Westwick to appear in The Commuter a short film short shot entirely on the not-quite-launched Nokia N8 - and you can appear in it too.
Two roles are up for grabs - one, we guess a guy, who shares bedroom with Pamela and the other, …

Old Plastic

Of course she's happy

She gets payed to lay on a bed in her undies, with a phone in her hand - and may I suggest, the average punter probably isn't going to be examining her to count her woody rings.

Now, as for whether that photo would make anyone more likely to buy any phones being advertised with as much, I cannot fathom. It looks to me like nothing more than a cover for a cheap skin 'flic. Even that it would be presented in an article about mobile phone marketing, I still cannot fit the two together.

Maybe if they tossed in a free six-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon, that would up the sales.

Hey, they could even have the signboards play the tune of that Eminem song, W.T.P - now tell me I can't market it better than Nokia? ><

Enough already

"Enough already: make way for a gratuitous lingerie pic."

And all of that in the section HARDware..

Way to go on the innuendo, grin, well done. As for the phone, Pamela isn't tits-up, and neither is Nokia. They may not do so well at present in the handset market (sorry Nokia, but it DID need a shakeup, this time is was Apple), but they also make all sorts of other mobile kit so they won't die just yet..

Hmm, I do have a killer feature - maybe I ought to give them a ring. From my iPhone, though :-)

Easy

Hey, Nokia...

the boat has sailed

well after being a nokia lover for so many years ive decided to jump ship, the n8 just didnt get here in time and im ordering my HTC desire. add to that the fact the 5800 ive had has gone batshit crazy after the last firmware update ive had enough of symbian, ive cut it slack for long enough

watch the vid

It looks like a commercial for the iPhone ... the features they "promote" look like how it works on an iphone. So they are behind, that is why they hired Pam as well ... good ole days when Nokia was untouchable .... ;-)
